Hello, i'm Giorgio! After 33 years spent in Rome, where I studied and practiced law, I moved to Umbria to live in the countryside in a farming cooperative. After that, i managed a publishing house, a software house and a communication agency, while putting my heart and work in renewing the house in Bettona listed here on Airbnb. But I won't keep it all for me - I hope you'll come live it a little yourself!

I am a lover of traveling as well, either in Italy, Europe or Asia; I enjoy human contact and me and my family (my wife Anna, my daughter Lucilla and my son Francesco) will be happy to guide our guests, if they wish, to discover the nature, history, art and enogastronomy of this beautiful region. Hope to see you here soon!

Reviews From Guests

Before we arrived, the hosts provided very good communication about the apartment, how to find it and the area. When we arrived we were greeted by Anna's charming smile and she gave us a thorough tour of the apartment with clear instructions about using the appliances, heating, etc. and left us with a gift of wine and provisions for breakfast. The next morning, Giorgio kindly took us on a tour of the area, including local shopping and the nearby town of Bevagna, which was very helpful for getting oriented to explore this beautiful region. The apartment is just as described, with a well stocked kitchen and everything needed for a comfortable stay. We would definitely like to return some day.

I was welcomed to Italy by Anna & Giorgio, two of the most enjoyable people I've ever met. The lovely apartment I rented from them was more than aptly equipped, and any questions I had Anna & Giorgio were ready to answer, and if they weren't sure, they found out and got back to me later. I don't think I could've found better hosts, they are wonderful people and made my vacation fantastic!

The 14th century house in Bettona is a fantastic place to stay and a great base for exploring Umbria. The apartment is very comfortable, well-equipped for travellers, and easy to locate. Our hosts were very punctual in responding to emails prior to our arrival, and made us feel very welcome. Thank you Anna and Georgio for our stay - only wish it had been longer.

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Giorgio's. Check-in time was flexible and communication was very easy. Parking space was adequate even for our large car. The home was clean, well equipped with linens and cleaning supplies in case we needed them. The home itself is beautiful and our visitors from the States were very impressed by it. We would recommend this apartment to anyone in the Assisi area.

Giorgio and Anna were very welcoming. The apartment is lovely and peaceful. Really appreciated the guided tour of local cheese,wine,produce and grocery stores. Bettona is tiny but charming and a great place as a home base for visiting Umbria. Would definitely stay here again

We arrived at the home of Giorgio and his wife Anna and were met with the warmest welcome. The apartment was beautifully situated in the hillside village of Bettona overlooking the hills of Umbria. The apartment has everything you need and more- our hosts graciously had wine and fruit waiting for us as well as coffee, milk, bread and eggs to assist with getting us settled.
Bettona is a beautiful little village from which to easily explore the neighbouring towns (Assisi, Bavagna) and cities such as Perugia.
Giorgio and Anna were wonderful guides and took us to special local places in the area to buy cheese, wine and pasta.
We were delighted to have our hosts guide us through Assisi and share their knowledge of so much of the history of the site. We ended the day in the garden with our hosts and another couple sipping wine and enjoying fruit and cheeses from the area
We absolutely loved our 4 night stay - it was the end of our trip and truly a 5 star experience and one to always remember
Thank you Giorgio and Anna - we wish you all the best

Giorgio and Anna made us feel so welcome and at home- in their BEAUTIFUL 2 bedroom apartment in Umbria, neat Assisi
They gave us a little tour, explained the house apliances well, and understood that we were tired on arrival.
The next day, Giorgio took us to a great cheese shop, wine store, and produce store, for fresh fruit He also showed us another charming fuedal village.
On the table as we arrived, was also bottle of the suoper local wine, a jar of cookies, eggs were in the fridge, etc..
The apartent was spotless.

Anna and Giorgio's place in Bettona is beyond perfect! We enjoyed every moment of our stay there. The only regret we had was that we couldn't stay longer! They clearly know what they are doing in terms of equipping a place for temporary guests. We really appreciated the supply of basic things in the kitchen like salt and olive oil, etc. and the bottle of wine they left. They were out of town but their niece, Natalia, was around to help us with anything we needed. Thank you so much Anna, Giorgio, and Natalia!

I've been in Bettona severals time in Giorgio's house. Always welcome and warmly and cosy. Giorgio and his family are great and wonderfull. Bettona is amazing in the middle way between Perugia and Assini. Wonderfull landscape and good food.

I know Giorgio and his family since many years and I love their sense of hospitality. At their place I always felt welcome and at home. I enjoyed friendly conversations as well as good food and perfect hosting. All the members of the Foresti family are willing to show their guests the region and the house surroundings. Ask and if they can, they will help you in planning your tour. The house is in a stunning place, is nice and well furnished, nothing is missing. So... enjoy your staying!
